Samajwadi Party patriarch Mulayam Singh Yadav and party’s national president Akhilesh Yadav shared a public platform after a gap of 11 months following the rift in the family, at Ram Manohar Lohia Park in Lucknow on Thursday.

The father-son duo paid tribute to party ideologue Ram Manohar Lohia on his death anniversary.

Akhilesh has met Mulayam twice in the past fortnight. Their public appearance has once again triggered speculation of a possible rapprochement in the Yadav family.

Incidentally, the family feud started around the same time in October last year when the then chief minister Akhilesh Yadav had sacked his uncle and minister Shivpal Yadav from the government.
